-
Glycerin: Binds water to skin for lasting moisture
✔ Ceramide-3

Repairs skin barrier function (critical for eczema-prone skin)
✔ Lightweight Texture
-
Fast-absorbing, non-greasy – ideal for daytime use
✔ Fragrance & Colorant-Free
-
Safe for sensitive skin
👐 Ideal For:
-
Dry/rough body skin (arms, legs, torso)
-
Early-stage keratosis pilaris ("chicken skin")
-
Maintenance therapy between eczema flares
-
Age-related dryness
💆 How to Use
-
Apply to slightly damp skin post-shower for enhanced absorption
-
Use 1-2x daily (morning/night)

For elbows/knees: Layer thicker creams on top if needed
Pro Tip: Works beautifully under sunscreen!
⚠️ Precautions
• Avoid on broken skin/active eczema (may sting)
